Ever Ivy is an extremely cool fashion line created by San Francisco Designer Liliana Ventura. The collection was founded in 2013 and exemplifies California’s cool, casual-chic style. To make Liliana Ventura’s “Ever Ivy” collection even cooler, it is made in California! Love that!

On the lake

A couple of week ago my family spent time with our friends at their lake house. It was a beautiful weekend with swimming, boating, fishing, jumping off rocks and more! Our kids had a lot of fun and we enjoyed spending time with our friends. 

Since we were on a lake, and one of our many activities was boating, I decided to go for a nautical look. This hat, which offers SPF protection, came in handy over the weekend and kept my face from being burned. The JCrew top I am wearing in these photos has also become a favorite of mine this summer. See how I styled it with a skirt here. The Rebecca Minkoff MAB tote I carried was perfect for storing towels, goggles for the kids, sunblock, and a sweatshirt just in case the weather changed.

Overall, the weekend was beautiful, fun and relaxing! I hope you have been able to get away this summer. What types of summer getaways do you enjoy?

Lamarca is a hot new online shop which carefully curates pieces from the hottest emerging designers around the globe. In addition to featuring pieces from emerging designers, Lamarca gives shoppers and Fashionistas everywhere a snapshot in the featured designers’ inspirations, experiences and personalities which ultimately help shape their creativity and collections. 

The designs curated by Lamarca transcend trends and reflect the personal style of the website’s shoppers. This collective buying site is perfect for trendsetters who enjoy being on the cutting edge of everything fashion. Lamarca is currently in the alpha stages of development, so fashion-forward shoppers can look forward to the website growing exponentially and including many more luxurious, emerging designers.

The way Lamarca, a collective buying site, works is through crowd funding. When you find a beautiful piece on Lamarca’s website, you can choose it and share it around the web with your friends and followers. As soon as enough shoppers select the piece, the designer will ship it out to everyone who ordered it. This process helps emerging designers sell their products while enabling them to provide excellent prices to shoppers. If a piece does not receive the required number of backers, you will receive a refund for the product. If the product does receive the required number of backers, it will be shipped for free within one week! Love that!

I absolutely love the collection Lamarca has curated thus far; and am looking forward to watching the site grow and include more designers. One of my favorite ways to stand out in the crowd or add a little spice to my wardrobe is through a handbag. Lamarca’s handbag collection is unique and cutting edge, which makes each piece the perfect addition to any wardrobe. These handbags will capture the attention of onlookers and instantly speak of one’s own personal style. Love that!

In the photo above you will find my four favorite pieces from Lamarca’s current collection. The box clutch is extremely special since it can be worn day into evening. Although it has an edgy style, the box clutch is an instant classic addition to any handbag collection. I definitely have my eye on it!
